The Future Awards And Its Misrepresentation Of The Nigerian Youth By Gimba Kakanda

By Gimba Kakanda

"I have absolute confidence in the strength and ability of the Nigerian youth.

Virgin Bride to Be Has The Cake to Show It - "Officially" Breaking the Hymen

I may be wrong, but is that a bloody vagina on that cake? Well, what is that they say, the more things seem to change, the more they remain the same. Back in the days, when a woman got married, a white sheet was put on the bed before she has sex with the husband, and a blood-stained sheet needs to be seen by all the next day, or yawa will gas for her.
